Wow. Everything about this game looks jank AF.
Easily my 2nd favorite coop shooter of 2024 - Helldivers 2 being #1

Easily the best coop shooter I've played in decades.

Stupidly addicting wave/hoard 3rd person shooter with online coop. Each wave takes between 30 to 60 seconds on average, each level completion gives random loot choices.

Think Risk of Rain 2 but smaller and faster.

Way more fun than I anticipated. 4v1 asymmetric matchups in a really IP appropriate hide'n'seek set up. Playing with/versus other players is completely optional. You get the exact same 'call of duty' style progression whether in bot play or versus humans.

There is a surprising amount of depth to the ghost busting activities. This would be ideal for a group of 5 friends. Online with randoms has been mostly positive though.

It took a few attempts to warm up to this title but at a certain point it fully clicked and I've had a fantastic time with Lords of the Fallen. The first real boss "Pieta" felt like an impossible hurdle to overcome and had me stop playing for days between a series of attempts. Eventually I figured out how to proceed and I learned to rely on dodging instead of parrying. From that point on I've had a mostly positive time in this homage to Dark Souls that is far more accessible than many other games in this genre. Full co-op is also a bonus.

It's brutal, punishing, completely unfun at times. 10/10

Update 1 adds "Denuvo Anti-Cheat". It's a root-level piece of software that you are now required to install even if you will never touch the multiplayer. I do not trust Bethesda with that level of control over my computer - adding compromisable software that initializes before windows properly boots up is a hard no for me. Update not installed/game uninstalled immediately.

Finished the game/got the end credits in about 30 minutes. Kind of enjoyable but pretty short.

I enjoy the mechanics of this RTS but without the ability to manually save your game I will not be touching this again. Losing a playthrough of a level because of a small mistake or oversight is a giant waste of time.

Very good.

Deckbuilding + Rougelite = Addictive game loop.
